Okay, last week was the high school magazine. This week, I got my college one! So without further ado, babies born to alumni of my college (with siblings in parenthesis):

Elizabeth Marie
Harold (Colleen)
Austin
August Jackson
Claire Elizabeth (Carolina)
Charlotte Aurora
Aubrey (f)
Augustine David
Rory Marion (m)

Also, some people mentioned non-baby children so I'm giving you those names too.

Jordan (m, college age)
Morgan (m, 15), Ewan (12)
Ella, Owen, Gracia (all elementary school age)
Eva (preschool age)

My thoughts in the comment section!

Facebook finds...

A friend of a friend on Facebook has a daughter who has an... interesting name. I saw some of her "friends" listed and became intrigued. These are mainly kids from her school, ages range from 14-16. Some aren't too bad, some are a wreck.

The friend's daughter: Dinesty De'Meisha
Her friends:

Also, a kid I went to school with has a son named Mason Rayge. And all this time I thought it was a ~creative~ spelling of "Rage," but I was wrong. He recently posted a video and he called the kid by his full name... it's actually said "RAY-gee" (like the letter G). Dislike even more now! Ugh.

Oh, Girl Names...

[magyargirl3.livejournal.com]

I've been feeling kinda clucky lately, so I've been writing down some of my favorite baby names. My top two favorite girl names are Christabel Marie and Ann Hadewych (Hah - duh - wich*). I've loved the name Christabel ever since I found it in a 60's era baby name book, and Marie is my middle name - if I had multiple daughters, I'd want the first one to have my middle name, since it was my grandma's middle name, and I want to pass that on. Hadewych is an older version of Hedwig, and is also the name of a Christian mystic, and Ann seemed to flow perfectly with that.

*hock in the back of your throat sound, like in L'chaim

My sister, however, hates Ann Hadewych. For one thing, she hates that spelling of Ann (someone spent too much time in Green Gables, methinks), plus she thinks that everyone would call her Hate Witch, because apparently that's what Hadewych looks like, and everyone would automatically know her middle name, since middle names are called so often in school. *eyeroll*

Am I crazy for wanting to give a daughter of mine that name? Is my sister overreacting? Do both of us need to go boil our heads? :P
